This is not the remix you heard a few days ago which is more like a part 2 than a remix. The “Sky High” remix is the version that is now being sent to rhythmic radios. And Capitol finally made a single cover for the song. Any thoughts?

2) LNN just launched LeToya News Mobile. It’s the cell-phone optimized version of Letoyanews.com. When you browse from your phone it will show up automatically. So now, it’s easy to get your LeToya fix wherever you are, whenever you want. Easy. Isn’t life beautiful? (PS: Iphone and other smartphone owners: if you rather still access the desktop version of the site just scroll down and click on “view full version”, in our opinion, we rather the mobile version, it’s much faster)

Head over at the LeToya News Galleries to check out a bunch of new updates… Photos you might never had seen before…. (like this one above for instance…)

Parris. You don’t need another confirmed confirmation of the confirmation that the “Regret” video is being shot in a few days? right? This is old news to LNN’s readers. And like we said it before, we only post the real deal. So ONCE AGAIN we were right. Stick with us to be the first to get inside scoops.

Anyway, about Pariss… His stuff is very filmlike. LeToya wants to show her acting side and I don’t blame her for that. I am personally not a fan of that music director’s work so I’m not expecting something amazing from this video. I HOPE she proves me wrong and comes up with something amazing. Check Pariss’s work out below.

As usual LNN is THE place where you get the exclusives when it comes to LeToya. We already told you a video was going to happen but now WE HAVE A DATE!   LeToya will shoot the video for “Regret” on Tuesday October 20th and Wednesday October 21st. Ludacris will be there as well! Whoooohooooo! Can’t wait to see how that will look like! Remember where you heard it first. *wink

Covered in shadows, the history of the girl group, Anjel, was always something left up in the air. LNN will shed some light on the clouded past of Anjel with the help Nativida Quinones (Nati, former member) who is setting the record straight for us once and for all, unlocking the mystery that was Anjel. Check out the audio of our interview at the bottom of this article.

In the year 2000, Linda Casey, mother of Jagged Edge twins, Brian and Brandon, had a talent search in the state of Connecticut to find members to join LeToya Luckett (soprano) and LaTavia Roberson (alto), formerly of Destiny’s Child. From the contest arrived Natasha Ramos who joined the group but due to altercations and wanting to continue school, she left the group but not before introducing to the team Nati, an old friend and former group mate of “Skim“. After a long talk with her friend and a nerve racking audition, Nati joined the group as Natasha left. She became the rapper (occasionally singing soprano).

From left to right: Nati, LeToya, Tiffany and LaTavia

On LeToya & LaTavia: “They’ve been through A LOT…just to see their strength, diligence and hunger [working with them] was a true blessing”

In 2001 a new addition was made to the group, college student Tiffany Beaudoin (mezzo-soprano), who was introduced by a mutual friend, auditioned and Anjel was completed. With the aid of Jagged Edge, Anjel recorded demos, in which 20 of them leaked (download them HERE), in Atlanta. They appeared at the 2001 Grammy’s where Destiny’s Child won a award for “Say My Name” but, although they collected their trophies, LeToya and LaTavia did not arrive on stage to receive and publicly gain credit for the song.

Soon Jermaine Dupri made the decision to take So So Def under Arista Records which caused trouble for Jagged Edge ’s production company 581 Entertainment. Already with their own girl group, Isyss, Arista had no need for another and Anjel was not chosen to become part of the label. With the foundation crumbling and no label support the plan to release an album was cancelled and the girls of Anjel disbanded the group each going their separate ways.

“They must’ve had something they were looking for at the time and we probably didn’t!”

Nati, life after Anjel

A Puerto Rican fire house born in Bronx, NY, Nati, born Nativida Quinones is a singer-songwriter formely of girl group Anjel. Raised in Connecticut she came from a very musical family. Daughter of a singer-guitar player Nati had music flowing through her veins “I grew up in one of those house holds where we had a house party and at some point your uncles just jumped out with the guitars…”

Nati was introduced to Anjel by her friend Natasha Ramos who she was in Skim with for a year and a half. Natasha Ramos’s manager invited Nati to be his solo artist at first but after Natasha left Anjel, Nati was called on to audition for it. Reluctant at first she went through with the heart racing audition. “It was a nerve racking experience but at the same time I came ready to fight.” Her light shined through and she became the new member of Anjel.

She then went to the the Grammy’s for the first time after just starting in the industry professionally. She also had to bear witness to the controversial moment of Beyonce Knowles, Kelendria Rowland and Tenitra “Michelle” Williams going up on stage and receiving their Grammy while her friends and groupmates sat in the crowd and watch their award be given away. “I know if i was about to receive a Grammy or something and didn’t get the chance to do so…It would be really really hard for me to sit down and watch some one else go up there or see something I worked really hard to get.”

“I want to be able to fill that gap for other artists that are coming in and don’t know what they’re walking into”

Now with Anjel all said and done, Nati, who has now relocated to Texas,  writing and recording her songs with the Nati Q project and working on secret projects she did not devulge. Driven to hit the spotlight, Nati is determined to venture into our hearts from all venues, focused on the dream to be seen everywhere and anywhere.  Working as CEO of her publishing company Ready Writer she is well on her way to becoming a powerful female entrepeneur.

Reminiscent of J-Lo but with better vocals, Nati is a woman full of passion and drive. She is an idealist who wants to inspire the new generation and become a role model, showing them the way and sharing her knowledge and wisdom. “I want to touch lives” “I see myself filling that gap in the music industry and entertainment”. We wish to hear from her soon and hope that she hits it big. Maybe she should hook up with a producer like Timbaland or The-Dream to take her under their wing and let her bloom like the elegent flower that she is.

You can check  her out on myspace and follow her on her new twitter account.
